Remove meringue from paper. Crumble meringue into ¼ inch pieces.
Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with knife.
Combine flour and the next 4 ingredients (flour through ¼ teaspoon cinnamon) in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.
